Nothing better than your own bloobs!
We have a six foot fence surrounding our raised bloob bed with bird netting on top. We have gangs of deer and so many berry theivn’ robins, well we can’t eat all the robin stew we could make! Its a joke!
The biggest problem we face is keeping the soil acid. In a 8 plant bed we tilled in 4 bales of peat and 25# of elemental sulfur and cover it with 8-12 inches of hardwood mulch every year. It has yaken awhile but the pH is in the 5-5.8 range every year. BB’s are shallow rooted so make sure you can put 1’5-2" water every week.
I can’t remember what we planted but they were from Lowes and we are getting a lot of berries now!
